Honestly, they’ve been going downhill the last few years. Let’s see what we see! ---

Well, that Mountain Dew Kickstart one basically convinced me that it’s the beverage of choice to induce psychosis and a movement disorder. ---

The TurboTax one, ending with Washington going back across the Delaware, was just stupid. ---

Turbo Tax - but you still have to pay the tax. And the guy who figures out how much you’ll pay the tax. And we’re also going to lie to you about how much that guy charges. But that final unnecessary fee, that we’ll remove. Kind of. They should have switched that with the CEO apologizing for screwing people. ---

The Snickers/Brady Bunch was mildly amusing. ---

I liked that Amy Purdy Camry commercial. They just showed a Carnival Cruises commercial that used the exact same voiceover gimmick and it was hella awkward. I thought the Kardashian commercial was cute and cheeky. ---

The avocado draft one is best so far. I liked the commentators, and the polar bear hoping to be picked by Mexico. ---
